warm my heart til explosion
filled with all your
love compassion kindness happiness
i'm not saying mine is cold
i can do that
just to an extent
eh i get "warm"
but id rather to be warmed
with the warmth you produce
Why cant I stop?
I fear
to have you
in my head.
I don't want you to leave,
Please dont go!
No worries, because
You wont,
No, on purpose mind you...
Just things remind me
of you.
And then you are stuck...
But no I shouldnt
no I really cant!
I need to get over you but,
I fear you,
flying too far away
I couldn't get myself to write with more detail hopefully there will be a follow-up :)
a smile a whisper
what do we have here
so wide that
well it must hurt
pulling you from cheek to cheek
no no don't take it away
as soon as you do that
I wont have a reason
for a smile
let me see it close
so I may see it all
and if it attempts to run
I would love to
try to bring it back
with a whisper
beautiful to say the least
for you always stop my eyes
their gaze trapped upon you
my attention
now stolen
you have no idea
the pull your beauty possesses
on my poor deprived eyes
the harder my heart beats
the more I have to hear
of why that is
of who it is
of what even
but at the end
in the silence
body will be filled with the sound
the harder my heart beats
you keep my heart afloat
even when its being weighed
it knows to keep you happy
it has to
stay high
beating loud
for you to return to less
that just wont do
My attempt at a Rumi style poem
Blink,
That brief darkness
Gifts you a moment
Interestingly
One of clarity
Where have you been
Did you really disappear
Or, was it
A moment to turn again
But return to...

Who?
Eyes pressed against me
Exposed from the darkness
What?
Things I thought were behind me
Brought to light from the darkness
When?
A period of my life
That I hid in the darkness
Where?
Was I trapped or lost
Travelling throughout the darkness
How?
The only way I can think
Is because of the darkness

It only makes sense
These extensions to fairly
Easy questions?
Or is it that I've always been here
You're the one blinking
Through the dark
Or am I just
Freaking out over
Something simply explained as
Blinking.
